It seems that possibly Rudy is the only one that gets the idea.  There are times
when internet access is not available, maybe while you are reconfiguring your
machine.  I can assure you, that if you have spent time looking for drivers, that
there are times when some are hard to find.  I have compiled over 4 gig of drivers,
from the antiquated and out of date, to the most recent and up to date.  I keep
those drivers archived on a dedicated machine.  If, for some reason the driver you
are looking for is not on my disk, all you have to do, is email the address on the
disk, include the code you receive with the disk, and I will email it to you within
24 hours.  Should the driver(s) be too large for some email accounts, you will have
access to my FTP site, and I will post it for you to download.

This disk may not be for everyone.  But for someone who values his/her time, it's
well worth it.

I'm not looking to get rich from this disk, I just think it is a good idea, and
reasonably priced.
All the Best
